personally I wouldn't waste any time trying to reuse the existing brackets. also, if you don't, it will make the actual swap and vehicle downtime much less.

He said it would be like $300 for everything. I would at least try to reuse them for that price.
reg:
the shoes are for the e-brake/parking brake. commonly refered to as a "mini-drum"

Yes, if I have to buy new brackets, I am going with the ones from M.O.R.E. which are $300 plus shipping. They are made specifically for the 8.8. Although, since I don't need the brackets for the track bar or sway bar, I will call them first and try to negotiate a smaller price for not purchasing a full kit. On top of those brackets, I still need to order the weld on third member bracket from Rock Krawler for my upper control arms. That is another hundo plus shipping.
